Sing o muse of Bronze Age Pervert, and use small words so peabrain academics and NGO astroterfs who bite our ankles can understand. We love BAP because BAP is a king, but what is a king? Moderns with atrophied souls have rarely encountered true regality in their lives
At the root of so many failed modes of thinking is the inability to grasp the nature of authority: idiots and spiritual children see only its privileges but cannot fathom its obligations
True kingliness is the burden of responsibility, not the grandeur of luxury. Though we demand grandeur from our kings, the liberal or the progressive inhabits a satanic frame, mistaking the trappings of power for its essence
The essence of leadership is to be responsible when things go wrong. To accept power over someone is to become indebted to them; in exchange for their loyalty, you owe them protection.
If we hate our leaders today, it is because they have presumed to be noble while abandoning their obligations to us
Authority is ever an obligation. Frederick the Great lamented, "Believe me, the humans I have known too well deserve little, sir, that we deign to be their master!" For such a man to carry this weight is a charity
To be a leader is to pay a terrible price. Like Damocles who admired Dionysius' riches, the modal lib does not see the sword hanging over his head. Why should the king deign to rule you, if nothing is in it for him?
There are exactly two relations a king can have to his subjects: he can view them as cows to be slaughtered or sheep to be sheared. A good king is a shepherd, a bad king is a butcher
And the modern man? He bleats, like a sheep, "no shepherd and one herd!" Every petty fool who speaks against BAP covets the respect that is paid to him, but they are incapable of seeing WHY that respect is paid
Suppose we imagine twitter as a virtual feudal sandbox, each account a little fief, then BAP's use of the platform was unique; he rose above the mass by means of his magnanimity
It may seem to be a ridiculous thing, but see how many frogs speak fondly of 'the moment BAP followed me' – BAP inverted the follower/following dynamic, because he understands the natural power of kings. When you wear his banner, he follows YOU
And when he does this, he is accepting responsibility for you. He broadcasted the works of his followers, and warned them of dangers, and tried to act in their best interest
Selflessness is only noble if you possess a self in the first place, a criteria which the vast majority of people fail to meet. The selflessness of the king is repaid when his subjects do great works in his name
Progs sometimes grope towards this, when they hold up examples of male protectorship as "nontoxic masculinity" – but they have a perverse and childish understanding of protection.
Progs hate their fathers, as we know, and their hatred is rooted in envy, as Satan envied the Son of God. Fatherhood is a microcosm of kingship, and so we see here the same fallacy, derived from the same sin
To protect someone does not mean to indulge them in all their desires, but to guard them from their worst impulses within themselves, and to do this requires a concession that liberals can never make: that there is a spiritual hierarchy among men
That hierarchy has nothing to do with education or "economic opportunity" or any such casuistry. It is found in the blood, it is ineffable, and it can be smothered by "environmental influences" but no mere "environment" can bring it about
At the risk of painting things too starkly, there are only two orientations to life: there is reverence of beauty, which is necessarily elitist, and reverence of ugliness, which is an attempt to "democratize" beauty, the worship of the great soulless mass of slaves
Some of you hear this and call me a sycophant. Why would you "suck up" to BAP like this? Don't you know he is gay? But if you think this, YOU are gay, because you can't imagine a relation between men that isn't sexual
"Oh but BAP is a spook! He's a GOP psyop!" And the standard retort: if that is so, then he is the guy telling you to lift weights, to seek beauty, to authentically embody masculinity. Does that sound like the GOP you know? Everyone who says this has the body habitus of a groyper
We see so many who wish to be honored, but who have no understanding of honor. "Why shouldn't I be honored like him?" they bray like donkeys, but they never brought honor to others, they only ever tried to honor themselves
Addendum: the twitter jannies do not understand what they have released into the world. Twitter was a containment zone. t.me/BronzeAgePalae…

My friends, it has been so long since we've had a heart to heart, and I've missed you.

This is my latest work, Don't Make Me Think, and I would like to apologize in advance to anyone who knows anything about neuroscience.

Please read it with an open mind zerohplovecraft.wordpress.com/2021/07/07/don…
A central fixture of this story is a real, imminent piece of technology, the Neuralink device, though I have taken some license, of course.

The device is supposed to have full read/write capability. If it can predict how your limbs are positioned, what else can it do? ImageImageImageImage
This is another tale of technocracy and technology. Such things as computers and the internet are here to stay, barring a total collapse, because they offer tremendous advantages in economics and war, even when we consider all their costs.

This can be hard to accept Image

This but it's gigachad and he reminds you to be based

"we're all gonna make it bro"

"the heaviest things we lift are not our weights but our feels"

"time to slonk some eggs"

"if those thots weren't so wicked, God would not have sent you to punish them"
One way of thinking about paraphilia is that it's a scrambling or disordering of erotic desire.

Properly ordered eros is not a fetish, so a desire to impregnate women is not a fetish.
Transexuality is disordered self-love, it's when a man loves himself as a woman.

Ordered self-love is something more akin to amor fati, the love of one's fate. If you are a man, then you love yourself as a man. "Philia" is supposed to mean friendship, not sexual love...

Courtly love only makes sense in a world where women are legally recognized as property, as one should always be gracious to his inferiors

The modern idea of chivalry only exists in romantic novels; it was primarily a matter of military and religious duty
But who cares what a bunch of women think about the right way to date them is? Women literally have negative insight into how they themselves behave in mating games. The things they think work are anti-knowledge, and men who listen to them (on avg) fail to woo them
"respect women" is literally the worst advice you could possibly give to a man who wants to get laid

@Pseudomastix @GlobalJitterbug @17cShyteposter @Outsideness Let me be a bit less flippant. Crt is critical theory applied to the topic of race. Critical theory is dialectical Marxism scrubbed of the talk about putting people in camps. The point of it is to deconstruct existing power structures in order to pave the way for Marxist utopia
@Pseudomastix @GlobalJitterbug @17cShyteposter @Outsideness It is an attack, it was always meant as an attack, and one of the ways it obscures its objective is through the ridiculous song and dance you are doing now (poorly) by pretending to be a very abstract theoretical type of thing

We have watched each click of the ratchet, as mindless pod people tell us that each new change isn't really happening, it's a crazy conspiracy, and also it's good that it's happening.
Have you ever seen Invasion of the Body Snatchers? Don't waste your time on any version but the original from 1956. It's a truly chilling film, one of the great classics of sci fi horror, and also a political allegory, as poignant today as it was then Image
In the story, alien seed pods grow exact replicas of the people all around you, and when you fall asleep, an alien consciousness grown from your pod takes over your body. At first it seems like a mass hysteria of Capgras delusion, but the aliens and pods turn out to be real Image

This was written off the cuff so I will respond off the cuff. I use a more expansive definition of "folk religion" than gaitanalyst does here. When we think of folk religion we probably think about primitive people in jungles or remote islands, but it's just unorganized religion
People have religious impulses that they will meet one way or another. In this thread I talk about my own personal model for social different needs people have and how they fill them with something practices that take on a "religious" nature
When people who live deep in the jungle and only know their immediate family form a folk religion, it ends up being pretty based and redpilled, because those people have a connection to the earth and to their family.
